Dhiego Lima replaces Roger Zapata, meets Jingliang Li at UFC Fight Night 66

Jingliang Li has a new opponent for UFC Fight Night 66.

Dhiego Lima, a "The Ultimate Fighter 14" runner-up, announced on Friday that he’s fighting Jingliang Li on a month's notice at the Fight Night card in Pasay City, Manila, on May 16. Li was originally slated to meet Roger Zapata at the event.

The UFC has yet to officially announce the change, but Lima told MMAFighting.com that contracts are already signed.

Lima (10-3) entered the UFC after winning three in a row at the promotion’s reality show, but suffered a first-round loss to Eddie Gordon at the season finale.
